Club Coffee is seeking $600 million in damages and said
Keurig was spreading "baseless and disparaging lies" about
competitors' coffee pods to mislead consumers and coerce third
parties into exclusive agreements.

Club Coffee said it made coffee pods for Keurig brewers and
sold them at lower prices than Keurig's own K-Cup packs.

However, a new version of Keurig's single-serve coffee
dispensing machine, Keurig 2.0, has a "lock-out" technology that
interacts only with Keurig-licensed and approved K-Cup packs,
Club Coffee said.

Club Coffee also said that Keurig made false statements to
dissuade consumers from buying Club Coffee's products, saying
they would damage Keurig Brewers.

Keurig spokeswoman Suzanne DuLong declined to comment on
Club Coffee's lawsuit, saying Keurig was yet to see the
complaint.

Club Coffee's suit comes more than a week after a U.S.
federal judge refused to block Keurig from selling the Keurig
2.0 machine, following an injunction filed by coffee company
Rogers Family Co.
